When I see "torta" in a title I think "sandwich". My store manager,
Oscar moreno 'splained that to me a long tiome ago. Along with telling
me that hard shell tacos are and American thing - not Mexican

Title: Cola-Chipotle Pork Tortas
Categories: Pork, Chilies, Herbs, Citrus, Breads
Yield: 8 Sabdwiches
1 md Onion; chopped
3 Chipotles in adobo
1 tb Lime juice
4 cl Garlic; minced
1 ts Ground cumin
12 oz Cola
2 1/2 lb Boneless pork shoulder roast
Salt & ground pepper
1/2 c Mayonnaise
8 Sandwich rolls or bolillos;
- split, toasted
1 Recipe Cebollas Encurtidas
+=OR=+
Thin sliced red onions (opt)
Sliced avocado
In a blender or food processor combine onion, chipotle
chile peppers, lime juice, garlic, and cumin. Cover and
blend or process until smooth, adding as much of the
cola as needed to make a smooth mixture. Stir in
remaining cola.
Trim excess fat from meat. Season meat generously with
salt and pepper. If necessary, cut meat to fit a 3 1/2-
to 4-quart slow cooker. Place meat in slow cooker. Pour
cola mixture over pork.
Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or
on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours.
Remove meat from cooker; remove cooking liquid from slow
cooker and reserve. When meat is cool enough to handle,
use two forks to shred meat, discarding any fat. Return
meat to cooker.
Skim fat from cooking liquid; transfer 1 cup cooking
liquid to a small saucepan. Bring to boiling. Reduce
heat and simmer, uncovered, for 8 to 10 minutes or until
liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup. Season to taste with salt.
Stir 1 tablespoon reduced cooking liquid into the
mayonnaise. Spread mayonnaise on cut sides of rolls. Add
remaining reduced cooking liquid to shredded meat and
stir to moisten. Use a slotted spoon to remove meat from
slow cooker; serve on buns topped with Cebollas
Encurtidas, if desired, and sliced avocado.
SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve with roasted potato wedges.
